Hey... I'm a river guy!... I dig rivers... I like oceans and lakes too... also streams, puddles, rain... tall glasses of cool water... water generally... but I grew up right next to a river so I'd have to go with rivers as my main water fancy... yep. ... !!

Lakes. The water is more likely to be drinkable.

Oceans are like overrated pop music- the Atlantic is akin to Justin Timberlake- huge and everybody knows it. Lakes on the other hand are like underground music- some are huge like Superior, but only known by smart people like The Clash while others are tiny and obscure. Afterbirth for example is Tawas Lake.

The Ojibwe call the lake gichi-gami (pronounced as gitchi-gami and kitchi-gami in other dialects), meaning "be a great sea." Longfellow wrote the name as "Gitche Gumee" in _The Song of Hiawatha_

it doesn't matter the how pristine the water into reservoirs are, the content becaomes tainted compared to the same input into a natural lake dammed or dyked contained water is inferior to the same water that is flowed into a natural lake

I've had lots of fun on lakes: water skiing Lake Vermillion, MN and canoeing Snowbank Lake, etc., in the Boundary Waters, and others. It was pretty cool to step onto the beach in California and hear the roar of the ocean at night. I'm going with lakes tonight.

hey I missed most of the show... did anyone address rivers?! Am I excluded from this debate.... I feel like the score should really be 8 oceans, 9lakes or whatever... 1 vote for rivers... just saying...
not trying to tell you how to run your show but yknow... it's wfmu... I feel like rivers really represent the "free form" spirit

If you think lakes are safe google the free living amoeba Naegleria fowleri- you may never swim in a lake again.

It is interesting that so many of your listeners justify their lake preference by negation: by their Fear of the Unknown. I love oceans for this very reason: limitless potentiality.
